What do you want to use the image for? It looks like a jpg . . . what more do you need for display on the web?

The link for the image is bad. I keep getting nothing or 'problem loading page'.

You can download a 30 trial version of Adobe Illustrator CS2 for free via their web site.

I had not seen that notice under the Illustrator trial before I purchased it, sorry if it says this as well.

Can you use the ones I just posted? They are pngs with transparent backgrounds. Just right click and save, if you can use them. I did them in Photoshop.

I'm still not getting it.
You created an image using a tool that has not been released and so you can't use the image. Right?

And you can't use a image that was converted from your image?

You want to (re)create your image in another (free) software that can create vector images?

If it's just a matter of 'you can't use what you create in that software until it's released'...I won't tell if you won't. I doubt they are going around checking every little logo on every site to see what software created it.

Sir Zubaz, you are right!! do you know of free software that can remake this Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us ?

I think by 'commercial use' they may mean you can't make something and 'sell' it...like a skin or icon package, with their software. I don't know what the prob would be with a logo on the page.

For FREE software, have you tried GIMP Link? It's popular, good, and free.

I don't see any effects on it, like in your original. Can you add them with inkscape?
